Re: RPC Timeout Errors
After intense troubleshooting on this server with our Remedy, NT Server, DB, Network, and UNIX teams I believe that we have solved this issue. 1.) We found that Oracle 11g was running Stat Reports at 10pm on all databases so there were 18 jobs running on the db that was putting the load up to 15 (20 is max capacity?). 2.) Automated server backups were kicking off around the same time (give or take an hour) and was running for almost 2 hours. This was also transferring around 35 to 40 gb of data to our Tivoli server. 3.) Initial troubleshooting on our part was to disable Developer Cache Mode. Resolution steps 1.) Reschedule DB jobs. They were running in this manner because it was default OOB configuration, changing that config was not a problem for the dba's. 2.) Set our server to start backups in an earlier time slot. 3.) Re-enabled Dev mode. 4.) Disabled escalations There were no reported performance issues last night. Thanks to everyone for the suggestions. I actually didn't even look at the dev mode after disabling it as I was focusing more on the server itself. -Original Message- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arsl...@arslist.org] On Behalf Of patchsk Sent: Saturday, February 06, 2010 2:52 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: RPC Timeout Errors Turning on devcache mode will increase the performance on a dev env.

Hi, You have to increase the Process Time out. You can configure it from: Server Information Form- Timeout Tab I would suggest you to kindly adopt some other performance improvement tips as well Like: -Increase the Next ID size -Create Private Queues -Improve network performance, increasing N/W bandwidth. -Increase H/W and S/w configuration as well etc. -Check whether any escation running on that time which are updating database.

Re: RPC Timeout Errors
Funny thing about the timeout errors is that through the User Tool people can search and update records during the same time that the developer tool is timing out. I know that there should not be development and data updates going on at the same time but we were testing to see if it was an issue across the board or just with developer tool.

Re: RPC Timeout Errors
The behavior that you describe is typical when multiple developers are on the system, and the server is not in Development Cache Mode, as activity in DT form multiple developers will all contend for the single Admin thread. This is also why you don't really see the issue in the User Tool while performing functions (e.g. Searches, Updates, Etc.) that don't use the Admin thread. If multiple developers will be working on the server, then Development Cache Mode is pretty much a MUST.

Re: RPC Timeout Errors
Don't put a production server in Dev Cache mode. Read the guides to get an explanation on the server modes. My take on it is that Dev Cache mode gives priority to development. If you do this on a production server, the devs will see performance improvement, but the system users will take a huge hit and may end up getting errors. With Dev Cache mode OFF, every dev tool or admin tool save causes a refresh of the server cache. A copy of the cache is made, then it is rebuilt. This allows the users to work without much impact. My guess is that one dev is making a change and saves. Another dev makes a change and tries to save while the server is re-caching. That would explain the time out errors.
